What

Never been a star gaze but maybe this will alleviate some of the ones saying he was not the best to go after. I always thought he should be the highest priority for his class. They moved to Knoxville to get that Vols offer. Been keeping up with since it happened. Really hope we get him onboard early.

Lots of technical reasons, and a couple of physical ones. For the biggest technical reason, you have to not only remember every play exactly like the QB, you have to then make the line calls and hike the ball. Not everybody has the mental makeup to do this.

And from the physical perspective, you have to be able to get 300 lbs. squatting down with a bent elbow while being able to move your head from side to side. Plus you have to have incredibly quick hands/arms to get them into your grip on the DL.

But the most important thing is leadership. While the OTs are out there making the big bucks, it’s the C that is the leader of that group.

But what do I know? I’m sure just changing that LT to C is just a couple of clicks in real life, just like in Madden.

🤷🏻‍♂️

A. We did get him
B. Knowing who is most interested in us and knowing who we are interested in is a little different. They can get direct knowledge on who our top targets are. They’re not high on Bryn and ESPN rankings are awful to begin with.

I wasn’t attacking you btw or them. I just remember leading up to the signing day, about 3 days out they said Washington would probably be the choice with us at 3. Then I remember Toot’s coach said on Sunday, he chose the Vols. And I agree with you ESPN rankings suck.

Said same about Gibbs... I'd be cautious on this one with VQ and rivals info. Tucker dad mentioned several things on here and their board about both and how tucker didn't fall for their shenanigans. This was why he was being dropped in Rivals rankings. So it's hard to tell what's really going on here.
